Chapter 205: Battle Conclusion

While the Titan was about to recover from the paralysis she sent a palm strike toward his chest and compressed all the diamonds on her body into a single point on her palm and made a focused explosion that shot in a single line.

'Shooting Star'

"BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!"

His aura broke and the explosion pierced the left side of his chest and came out from his back, shattering the aura that was there also. The beam of energy reached the ground and an earthquake shook the Glass Empire and most of northern Nigeria. The ground that was hit by the beam turned to white magma and evaporated, the heat in the entire area reached new heights; temperatures that could melt steel, the air was ionized by the new amount of energy and plasma bolts extended from the surface where the beam of energy touched the air. Blue blood gushed out of the wound, the emperor's heart had been vaporized by the blast, and blood came out of his mouth and nose.

This was an amount of power Mira had shown in Washington but she had never been able to control it to this extent so she never used this amount of power at once. But now she could channel all that power and focus it like she did now.

As expected the battered body of the Emperor disappeared and was replaced by a new pristine body. Mira covered herself with diamonds again but she was now too close to escape a roar. Seeing this new opportunity he recreated his scythe and roared.

"BOOM!!!!!!!!!"

The Emperor had not covered himself with aura yet so the immaterial diamonds quickly found purchase in his head and exploded as Mira punched him. He revived again with the knowledge that the roar was no going to work on Mira again.

Another punch was coming for his face but he spread a ball of attributed aura out to gain some distance so that he could think. Mira didn't avoid the aura and just punched through it. The diamonds on her palm began to shine as Mira prepared another shooting star.

The Emperor managed to dodge and counterattack with a downward scythe slice since his the aura had at least managed to slow down the strike even though it didn't rewind her like it was supposed to. The slash landed on Mira's head bringing a smile to the Emperor as he had finally hit the place he wanted to hit since the beginning of the fight.

"TING!!!!!"

His scythe bounced of the diamond with a ring. The scythe that only attacked the temporal form of a creature was blocked. This was because of one of the special properties of the abstract energy form, Diamond that was unknown to both Mira and the Emperor. Mira only knew instinctually that she could block the attacks.

The Emperor flew away towards where the people had run to. Mira thought 'So this is the second Ancient grade of the country. It's really sad how he turned out'. The Emperor was trying to use the people as hostages now that all of his abilities didn't work on Mira. Mira easily shorted the little distance he had created between them and blasted the Emperor's head with another beam of energy.

To her surprise her IP said 'You have killed a Rank 20 Primordial Titan (Kronos)'. His corpse remained as blue blood flowed out of his headless neck. Mira had an instinctual knowledge that the Abdul she turned to in the trace was the person she had just killed.

'So much suffering so much struggle just so that you could be on top and yet when you reached the top you made things worse for people like you. All because of the stupid idea you had in your head that those at the top must always suppress those at the bottom. Madness, Waste' Mira thought as she threw his corpse through a portal that led to her storage.

She chuckled as she thought 'Deciding everything with power, so stupid Abdul. Power is such an illusion. You're here beaten by a Mythical Grade person a thing you probably thought impossible. What power? We are just beggars, begging this chaotic and unpredictable world to give me some peace, some joy'.

Mira knew that a part of her was very much like Abdul as she would not let herself live in a world where unfortunate people were harassed by those who had power. She could have easily been the corpse. Because she also needed power and control, after surviving through this apocalypse it was the least she could ask for. But the truth was that it was all an illusion. Power was still in the hands of whoever orchestrated the apocalypse and what she had were hand-me-downs, the world was still as chaotic and uncontrollable as it was before any evolution.

Mira floated above the clouds towards where Funmi was fighting the Lords. She was shocked when she saw Funmi, Hassan and Salam fighting the remaining 3 Lords.

The participants turned to look at the newcomer and Mira threw Abdul's body toward them. The Lords were shocked, Hassan and Salam included, when they saw the head; they never imagined that a Mythical could defeat a Celestial.

Mira said to everyone 'Let's stop the fighting. Funmi, please tell the APT and Terrania that the Glass Empire is no more. If you guys want to join any of the settlements feel free. I'm going to search for survivors'.

The Lords stopped the fight after that, they didn't want to die because of a dead man. They assisted in finding survivors. The headless body of their leader still seemed like an illusion to them. Mira and Funmi left for Night City afterwards.

Funmi decided to leave the APT after that and just explore the world since it was more her style and since the deciding members were having issues deciding whether they should bring her back. Some were of the opinion that since her operation was a success and considering she was a founding member of the APT she should be allowed to join again. Others felt allow her join would inspire people to disobey orders and go against the interest of the APT based on their emotions. Funmi made the decision easy by leaving, she had done her best for the people there to repay all the help they provided, now she wanted to enjoy herself.

When Mira returned she joined the preparation for their battle against the Rank 27 King in the US, this involved going to the other settlements in the country and asking them if they were interested in the expedition.
